For purposes of this Chapter: "General entertainment establishment" means an establishment that is generally open to the public, or a segment of the public, as a place to view live or other entertainment performances in an amphitheater, auditorium, ballroom, concert hall, theatre or showroom setting; for hosting or accommodating a concert, convention, competition, sporting event or trade show; or any combination thereof. The term applies whether or not events or activities hosted or accommodated by the facility generally, or in particular cases, are open or closed to the general public and whether or not reservations or ticket sales are available in advance. The term also includes an establishment that operates in a manner similar to a nightclub, but that has an occupancy load limit of ninety-nine persons or less. The term does not include an establishment that is licensed (or qualifies) for licensing under LVMC Chapter 6.35, 6.39 or 6.80. The term shall not be deemed to include an establishment that provides entertainment if that entertainment is incidental to the primary activity of the establishment and consists merely of ambient or background music intended to create or enhance a mood or atmosphere, or karaoke singing and interaction, or a combination thereof.
